"Well, take him back to camp with
you, sergeant" observed the General.
''Hold on, though, didn't we send for

"Well, we'll see if they recognize
him."
The three men were brought in, and
inside Of five minutes Swift was

camp four or five days previous, claim
ing to be looking for friend, and had
bribed the boys to let him into the
tent He made his excursions through
the division from this point. He must
have been man with wonderful
memory, and he had gained oceans of
information without seeming to pump
anybody. He tried to brave it out
against the three men, but other
members of the company were sent
for, and his nerve at last gave way.
A Court-martial was convened, and
four days after his capture Swift was
hung. While he died game and
would admit nothing, it was satisfac-
torily settled that he came from John
ston army, and that he was old in
the business.

THE POULTERER.
damaging Tor Eggs.

In relation to failures in the care of
fowls, the Dakota Farmer says:
When the poultryman has made his pre-
parations and begun his operations, he is
often disappointed at not receiving fair
return in eggs for the attention and care be-
slowed. The majority of failures arise
with those who have given the fowls all
they can eat, and, with q liberal supply of
ground oyster-shells, ground bone, gravel,
fresh water, and green food, no eggs re-
ward the persevering poultryman. The
cause of failure is that the hens are over
fed. 1t is always mistake to keep food
before them, and, though q variety should
be given. care must be exercised not to
feed full meal except at night. If the
food is SO given that the hens will not be
satisfied with the quantity they have re-
ceived they will hunt for more. and keep
busily at work. This avoids idleness and
prevents them from pulling feathers or be-
coming too fat. In the morning the soft
food may be given, but it is best not to
give quite enough rather than full allow
ance. Then scatter few grains in cut
straw, dirt, or litter, and let them get to
work scratching. At night give a full
meal. By keeping the hens warm, busy,
and in moderate condition they will lay

po,.i,ru Para0raDI,s.

Do NOT make the mistake of choosing
nothing but the largest fowls for sitters.
Medium sized hens are, as rule, better
for this purpose, if they are not deficient
in feathers.
THERE is less danger of hens leaving
their eggs if they are always set in the
evening. They are much more apt to
stock" Be very careful about disturbing
them for the first two or three days.
MANY poultry rasers fall into the too
common error Of using for breeding stock
ordinary or even poor fowls: Not Not one. one can car
binary or inferior stock from such
method. Use only the best for breeding.
The result will be none too good then.

toes all frozen would not be expected, by

come NJ rch and May. Very little should
be done in that line in June, and nothing
whatever du,..ng July. During the last
week in AuguAt, and from then on to the
Goth of September, few chickens-pullets
for laying the next Aeason during the time
when the other fowls are moulting-may
be raised with profit.
TOBACCO, in its raw STATE. or previous
to sweatening in bulk, is very powerful in
its effect, and will certainly drive yermin
from the hens nest. The whole leaves
may be thoroughly dried SO as to crumble
easily, and put in the nest of the sitting
hon as lining under the eggs. With this
precaution she will not be driven from her
nest by vermin before the time of Matching
arrives. Tobacco is often enormously sup
posed to be difficult to cultivate. but it is
really as easily raised as corn or potatoes.
A few plants only will give the poulterer
plenty of leaves for use in his fowl-house.
